For a richer flavor, consider sautéing the chopped onion in a teaspoon of olive oil before adding it to the pot. If you prefer a milder flavor, remove the seeds and membranes from the jalapeno pepper before mincing. A squeeze of fresh lime juice just before serving can brighten the flavors and add a refreshing touch.
